Our question was "What color has the largest number of M&M's?"
Our hypothesis was that the greatest number of M&M's was orange.
To find out if our hypothesize was correct we found the total number of M&M's in each of three bags. We found that there were 54 M&M's in the first bag, 56 in the second, and 57 in the third. For the first bag there were 12 orange M&M's which was the second largest amount of the same colored M&M's. For the second bag there were 21 orange M&M's which was the largest amount of same colored M&M's.The third bag had 11 orange M&M's which was the second largest amount of the same color. Next we found the proportion of orange M&M's compared to the rest of the M&M's. We added up the number of orange M&M's in each bag and got 44 orange M&M's. We then added up the total number of M&M's in each bag and got 167. Then we divided 44 by 167 and got .26 which changes to 26%. This means that 26% of our M&M's were orange, and this makes the orange M&M's the largest number of M&M's in each bag. Therefore, out hypothesis was correct.
Hypothesis-this is a guess that is the best possible thought of the experiments outcome Data gathering-gathering information from what type of project or report you are working on Multiple trials-these are repeating of an experiment Variance- the quality for being different Average-this is when you take how many of the numbers you have, add them all up, and divide them of how many there are Median-this is the number that is the middle number when put from the least number to the greatest number Mode-this is the number that appears most often Histogram-a histogram is a gram that is used for when you use rectangles to fill in for the labels that you are using for a project and usually has numbers on the side and on the bottom, there is normally a label that indicates what you are filling in the chart for Pie chart-a pie chart is a chart that is a circle, and you divide the circle into sections of whatever it is that you are working on Inference-this is a conclusion based on evidence and reasoning
Before we started the experiment we came up with a question our question is, “What color has the largest number of M&M’s?” In our hypothesis we predicted that orange would have the largest amount of M&M’s of the three bags combined and we were right. The total amount of orange M&M’s was 44, 9 greater than the next highest color, blue. Even though orange had the most M&M’s overall, it had the second most in Bags 1 and 3. In bag one orange had 12, which was one less than green. In bag 3, orange had 11, which was five less than blue. So you can see, our hypothesis was correct, and orange had the biggest amount of M&M’s overall.

Hypothesis-this is a guess that is the best possible thought of the experiments outcome
Data gathering-gathering information from what type of project or report you are working on
Multiple trials-these are repeating of an experiment
Variance- the quality for being different
Average-this is when you take how many of the numbers you have, add them all up, and divide them of how many there are
Median-this is the number that is the middle number when put from the least number to the greatest number
Mode-this is the number that appears most often
Histogram-a histogram is a gram that is used for when you use rectangles to fill in for the labels that you are using for a project and usually has numbers on the side and on the bottom, there is normally a label that indicates what you are filling in the chart for
Pie chart-a pie chart is a chart that is a circle, and you divide the circle into sections of whatever it is that you are working on
Inference-this is a conclusion based on evidence and reasoning
